How do I prepare for the IAS Mains essay paper? - Delhi

According to historical experience with UPSC mains preparation, the majority of applicants spend most of their time preparing for the other GS papers- 1,2,3,4 and devote less to the preparation of essays. Yet, these 250 marks are quite important because the scores that the students received on this paper ranged from 30 to 155, which is a pretty wide range and may be highly important for anyone.

Students should understand that this module is very important and simple for all applicants since they have a lot of options to choose from while writing an essay, giving them the chance to share their ideas or information. The primary reason essays are simple to complete is that they test our current knowledge rather than allowing us to rely on static issues. For example, if we can write more about current events, such as any parameters set by the government or any international organization, such as the world bank, IMF, etc., fundamental principles in government initiatives in the form of schemes, or say any data released by the government related to education or poverty if included in essays, one can fetch higher grades.
